A couple of weeks I go the wife and I went down to NYC to test ride some folders. We went to NYCe Wheels where we rode a Brompton, Tern Link D8 and, Dahon MU P8.http://www.nycewheels.com/dahon-folding-bike-mu-p8.html. Neither of us cared for the Brompton and since we won't be using them to take full advantage of the qualities offered decided not to get it. The Tern rode very well, seemed to absorb the rode shock. I didn't care for the fact that the handle bar stem couldn't be adjusted. The Dahon seemed a little more sporty than the other two but you could feel the road vibration.

Although we were looking for two bikes we decided to get only one ride it for a little longer than a test ride and then decide on which other one to get. Sorry, We bought the MU P8. I'm thinking of either another MU or the Speed P8. http://www.nycewheels.com/dahon-fold...-speed-p8.html
Maybe the Chromoly would give a smoother ride or would that be more of a function of the tires? The Speed has longer reach than the MU so my wife may be at the limit.

Yes I should have tried the Speed when I was there but I didn't think of it and we sort of ran out of time. It's 45 minutes to get to the shop if there's no traffic so I can't just pop down. Any thoughts?
